Added

  • Idle guests give their file cache back to the host. A VM that read a few gigabytes used
    to hold that memory for good, duplicated in the host's page cache or, on a busy host, its
    swap. A guest that is not under memory pressure now returns the file cache it has stopped
    using and keeps what it is still re-reading — on an 8G dev VM holding 5G of cache, the VMM's
    host footprint fell from 7.7G to 1.3G. vk run --reclaim, a service's x-virtkit.reclaim
    and the executor's [vm] reclaim default to auto and also take off, or a size or share
    of RAM to keep cached.
